This is an honest question:
Can I eat cake & take a bath at the same time or is that too pathetic?

I've been working out again,
which is part of my plan to drag myself out of depression. My abs, arms & legs hurt so bad & it actually hurts to walk down the stairs!, but I’m really glad I’m doing it. I know that it will help me feel better about my body & it’ll give me more energy, which (tada!) will make me less depressed. I’m already feeling better. Now, I just have to keep it up!

This is what my pepper spray looks like. For the record, I didn’t buy it for myself, my parents got it for me. As I was walking out of Wal Mart tonight, without it, it donned on me on how fucked up it is. Not only the fact that I need the weapon itself, but it’s color.
It’s like, we’re trying to make rape culture cutesy. Same goes for pink tazers. Pink handguns....

This is the most accurate thing I’ve seen on Portlandia. Maybe.
People don’t drive there; they wait their turn.
So perfect.

How I'm Going to Drag Myself Out of Depression
Yeah, things have been shitty & I’m sick of it. While I was home, I talked to some of my best friends & they had so much helpful advice for me. I feel like now I have a plan to pull myself together. I’m going to post it up here so that I will actually hold myself accountable to it. Here it goes:

This time tomorrow I'll be back in Portland
I don’t know how I feel about it. I’m incredibly, embarrassingly excited to see the cats, but I’m really going to miss being surrounded by my friends & family. It’s just hard not knowing when I’ll be back.
This trip was full of mixed emotions, but I’m glad I came home. I just hope I can keep my spirits up when I go back to the Northwest.
